  1. A bit overpriced... 190 Euro for 1500 parts. Compared to other pneumatic sets: 42128 is 10 Euro less for 500 more parts. Still better than 42144 which is 120 Euro for the half of the parts!
  2. If the Liebherr crane is set n. 42146 from last year, and the Bugatti is 42162, we are missing 42159, 42160 and 42161. May we expect 3 unveiled sets for summer / October? I also feel strange they released new Technic sets almost every month this year, I'd like to have the same continuity also in summer and autumn
  3. It looks to be black but I hope it is just a dark photo to highlight the glowing bars. So my hopes are it is dark bluish grey.
  4. 12t double bevel gears in dark bluish grey in set 75363
  5. I've built my own version starting from your instructions: it was scaled down to 1:21 scale to fit my other mocs (Mack scale). I like it a lot, thanks for your input! In the model there are 4 not-Lego parts (rear wheels), because TLG doesn't produce them in the right colour.
  6. Enjoy this little 8x4 tipper truck made using parts of 2x 42147 sets. Free instructions: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-140088/technicprojects/mini-tipper-truck-2x-42147-alternate-model/#details
  7. So we even don't know what colours will be the new summer sets? I'm sure somebody have seen them...
  8. Hello, I show you my latest build. It is a mod of set 42144. I was really disappointed by the aesthetic of 42144 material handler, but I think that the arm and the turret has been well designed. And I changed everything else. New tracked undercarriage, new tilting cab (not lifting) and new grapple (too look more similar to a demolition grapple). I tried to minimise the use of extra parts at the strength necessary. Instructions are available on rebrickable: here I hope you like it!
  9. This part in yellow suggests me it will be very useful to shape excavators' counterweights
  10. It looks more like a reskinned version of the car included in the car transporter. It's almost identical to my eyes!
  11. Cute! To my eyes the arm looks a little small / thin compared to the body, but anyway a very nice model.
  12. I think I'm going to build the tipper version + snowplow in front. My compliments for this one and the other 99 mocs, you are really a Lego Technic master! And thanks for the free instructions.
  13. Flex axles for the windscreen are the best solution in my opinion. I also like the color (medium blue?) and I prefer LBG wheel covers.
  14. Awesome design, one of the best 42131 alternate at the moment.
  15. Ahhh! Not stable at all then
  16. I mean, the orange connector cannot rotate in the 5L thin red liftarms!
  17. In your solution you have an axle on the top, instead of a pin, so that would not consent connection to the liftarm.
  18. Yes it looks like that, otherwise the 2 pins on the bottom would have touched the ground.
  19. I think it's just this one https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=22961
  20. So should we expect official reveal and reviews today?
  21. There are some interesting plastic low-profile wheels in 71780 that could be used in small technic cars (but no axle hole may be a downside)
  22. Nice variant! I've bought the instructions for the wheeled version and planning to build it with some little mods.
